About this task

A group defines a set of users on IBM SVA. You must create the following groups on IBM SVA:

  • User group.

  • Administrator group, which is used for administration purposes.

You also use these group settings to configure attribute mapping between IBM SVA and Keycloak.

Note:

The SSO capabilities are available to members of both these groups.

Procedure

  2. In the left navigation pane, navigate to User&group.

  4. Create an administrator group as follows:
    1. Click Add group.
    2. In Name, type a name of your choice for the group.
